Re: Just to add to what Percy said
Are you listening to the creationists arguments and evidence concerning creation with understanding?
​
Do you expect anyone to understand your point of view when you don't understand theirs and make no attempt to.
​
What you are missing is that many here on the side of science were actually once creationists and argued from that side, using identical arguments to those being regurgitated today. These once-creationists now range from atheists to deists to theistic evolutionists.

I think nator needs to add something to the OP regarding reading comprehension...

Re: Just to add to what Percy said
Is this the only answer you can up with to what appears to me a genuine question? I don't see your point.
​
Let me paraphrase:
​
Dameeva - How can you argue against the creationist when you don't understand their position
​
Cavediver - But many here do understand the creationist position because they used to be creationists
​
Dameeva - What's your point?
​
Cavediver - Huh??? The point is I just refuted your claim - how is that not blindingly obvious?
